This study (presented in two parts) integrates core data ({approx}125 cores), standard and epifluorescence petrography ({approx}450 thin sections), logs, and seismic and source rock/oil geochemistry in order to evaluate the Keg River/Winnipegosis petroleum system. Important results include (1) the interpretation of the regional depositional and stratigraphic framework of the Middle Devonian (Givetian) Keg River/Winnipegosis Formation from northwest Alberta 1100 mi (1770 km) southeast to North Dakota, (2) re-examination of trap types in the Keg River/Winnipegosis, (3) evaluation of source rock(s) and migration pathway(s) for known Keg River/Winnipegosis production, and (4) high-grading of old and new play types.
